      gauges (pics of the final intall now posted)

      ok i desided to install a volt gauge caz i will be pushing 1050 watts RMS, and 150+ leds so keepin an eye on the electrical system would be smart, and a vacuum gauge to improve my gas milege by moding my driving style. i don't have any problems with hookin up the volt gauge, but were do i conect the lil tube for the vacuum gauge in the engine compartment of the aveo

      help me out boiz

      oh and im picking up trisco gauges it should come out around 60$ for both, and this is what they look like

      Yes I do have the vacuum gauge in my car. The gauges are decent. I barely see any comeback that don't work hehe.

      Hook the vac gauge to the intake manifold BETWEEN the head and the throttle body.

      The small tube taped to the big one is where I connected the vacuum gauge. I routed the line in the driver side fender to the gauge on the A-pillar.
